Yeah, I'm not playing any of the "free" games and I've not played online since Monster Hunter: World.
Only Iron Rain is making me consider staying, but even then, I'm not sold yet.
The "free" games are only available if you have PS+, unlike MS, so it's even less good value, comparatively, considering they let you keep them, are still doing 360 and OGXB games and making them work on the One.

If you lapse PS+ and then resubscribe later, all the previously claimed titles are available on your account again.Last edited by MartyG; 28-03-2019, 10:55.

Probably like most of this forum, I regard the mandatory online fees as 'snake oil'. I try to keep the cost down by buying when on offer or using Microsoft Rewards to extend Live. That said if you don't play multiplayer games, Game Pass and PS Now probably both represent MUCH better value but unfortunately neither includes the premium features of PS+ or Gold (i.e. Cloud saves etc.) - not that those are much benefit either.

Every single one of us would, you’d have no choice.
I regard the PS Plus and Live Gold as a tax, where as I am genuinely fine paying for services like Game Pass, TESO or Humble Bundle as I think they offer value for money.
Personally I'd like to see their just be one subscription with the benefits of Game Pass/PS Now merged with Gold/Plus premium features and everyone allowed to play online for free. Not going to happen because the current mandating online fees is near pure profit for the platform holders.Last edited by Digfox; 28-03-2019, 15:21.

All those servers aren’t free to run and maintain, really don’t understand how others don’t get that.
